Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for determining the position, with a first step, a first sequence of positions being determined from radio signals of essentially stationary transmitters, a second sequence of positions being determined from other sensor data by coupling.
  • the invention further relates to a computer program product for performing the method.
  • the invention also relates to a position determining device.
  • WLAN tracking systems have been in commercial use, which determine the position of a receiver, for example in a tracking device, on the basis of transmissions from identifiable transmitters (e.g. WLAN routers) and the measured reception strength of these transmissions.
  • identifiable transmitters e.g. WLAN routers
  • signal path modeling There are basically two different approaches to this, which are referred to as “position fingerprinting” or “signal path modeling”.
  • position fingerprinting the entire area in which the system is to be used is measured before the location system is used, and the reception strengths of all available WLAN networks are entered on a grid for each position.
  • the reception strengths measured on the location device are compared with the reception strengths stored in the database and the position is calculated using special algorithms.
  • the simplest, conceivable algorithm specifies the position from the database whose measured reception strengths have the smallest geometric distance from the reception strengths measured during location.
  • Signal Path Modeling requires a database with the positions of all WLAN base stations in the location area, which can be found under other by measuring the reception strengths in the location area, as in the script US 7,403,762 described, can be determined. During the location, the reception strengths measured on the terminal are converted into distances from the associated base station using a mathematical relationship and the current position is determined by trilateration based on the known router positions. The trilateration differs from the known triangulation in that only distance and no angle information is used.
  • the accuracy of both methods depends on the quality of the underlying database, since the location can never be more precise than the reference given by the database.
  • the disturbances that can occur during the creation of the database are manifold since the measured reception strength depends not only on the distance, but also on objects in the transmission path, the orientation of the terminal and the time.
  • the positions of the routers can still be changed, routers removed or added. So that the functionality of the location system can still be ensured in these cases, for example, in the font US 7,474,897 assesses the quality of the location information of each router and thus decides whether it can be used for location.
  • the font US 7,493,127 describes a method for updating the database in operation in which the consistency of the received information is checked with each location process and in the event of inconsistent or new received information, router positions can be changed or added based on the position of the end device determined by other routers. These methods ensure that the functionality of the system is not restricted by changing the properties of individual routers if there is a sufficient number of other routers with which the position can be determined.
  • An INS can be constructed, for example, on the basis of MEMS sensors.
  • An acceleration sensor is used to change the position by counting steps in combination with determining the step length to capture.
  • an electronic compass often in combination with a rotation rate sensor, is used to determine the direction of horizontal movement, while a pressure sensor detects movements in the vertical axis.
  • an INS can be used to simplify the creation of a "Location Fingerprinting" database, as in " Sensor Data Fusion for Pedestrian Navigation Using WLAN and INS "(J. Seitz, L. Pati ⁇ o-Studencka, B. Schindler, S. Haimerl, JG Boronat, S. Meyer, and J. Thielecke, in Proceedings of Gyro Technology Symposium 2007, Sep 2007 ) is described.
  • the path between two manually entered reference positions is interpolated during the creation of the database using the data obtained from the INS, which means that fewer manual entries are required.
  • the accuracy of a location system is limited by the quality of the underlying database with reference positions, which in the case of WLAN location systems can include router positions, for example.
  • the known methods for optimizing the database only use information obtained from the location system itself in order to recognize changes in the position references. For example, the current position must be determined using the reception strength of several routers at several locations in order to be able to determine the position of a new router. Since the position measurement is subject to a measurement error, the uncertainty of the position of the newly determined router is greater than that of the routers used as a reference. In addition, systematic errors in position determination, such as those caused by the reception properties caused by the orientation of the end device, can be caused to proceed directly to the location of the new router. As a result, the quality of the position database decreases over time, since each time a router position is changed, the uncertainty regarding its position increases.
  • new routers can only be assigned to a position in the vicinity of several other routers, since otherwise no reference position can be determined.
  • the methods for database optimization can only be carried out in areas with a high density of routers and fail e.g. on the outskirts and in rural areas.
  • the publication US 2009/085806 A1 discloses a method for determining a position from radio signals from fixed transmitters. Furthermore, a method for rejecting incorrect position information of fixed transmitters is disclosed in that the position information is compared with values determined by satellite navigation or with values from dead reckoning.
  • the invention relates to a method for determining the position, with a first step, a first sequence of positions being determined from radio signals of essentially stationary transmitters, a second sequence of positions being determined from other sensor data by coupling.
  • the essence of the invention is that in a second step (20) the first sequence of positions (12) and the second sequence of positions (14) are compared with one another.
  • the method according to the invention enables an automated improvement of the database for the location without a new measurement using a reference system.
  • a gradual expansion of the position database at the edge of the application area is possible. It is possible to map the paths in buildings. All of this leads as a benefit for the user of the location system to improved location accuracy and for the operator of the location system to lower operating costs, since the quality of the database can be improved by the location devices of the users without additional effort in operation.
  • the method according to the invention can advantageously be implemented in a computer program product according to the invention or can also be carried out with a position determining device according to the invention.
  • Previous systems use the INS and WLAN data to improve the positioning accuracy at the lowest level.
  • the object of this invention is to have the systems first determine a path covered in isolation and then to identify errors in the position determination of the positioning system based on radio transmitters by comparing the determined paths.
  • systematic errors can be identified in the database of the location system and new position references can also be added in peripheral areas and areas with few references.
  • the idea of the invention is the general optimization of position databases by position determination devices of the users on the basis of dead reckoning. For example, MEMS sensors in the position determination devices can be used for this.
  • a possible implementation is presented below as an example.
  • Fig. 1 shows an example of the inventive method for position determination.
  • the determination of accuracy 2 is usually specified individually for each measured position; for the INS, determination of accuracy 4 can be made, among other things, by comparing compass and rotation rate sensor data, or the properties of the compass offset -Compensation and accuracy of the step length determination can be determined.
  • This is followed by the recording of the data during the actual locating process. Exemplary recorded data are in Figure 2 shown.
  • Fig. 2 shows the inventive comparison of a first sequence of positions and a second sequence of positions.
  • this shows Example a comparison of the two sequences of positions to determine a resulting sequence of positions.
  • a first sequence of positions 12 is determined from measurements of fixed radio transmitters and with the aid of the database of the location system.
  • a second sequence of positions 14, ie a path is determined in the same step 10.
  • the two sequences of positions 12 and 14 are compared with one another.
  • the two sequences of positions 12 and 14 are compared with one another in this example and a resulting sequence of positions is determined from this.
  • the comparison or data fusion is carried out, for example, with the aid of the Least Square Estimation (LSE) method.
  • LSE Least Square Estimation
  • the error of the positioning system can be converted into an error in the database, which can be corrected weighted with the accuracy of the INS.
  • the great advantage of this method is that errors in the location system and errors in the INS can be assumed to be uncorrelated, which means that the database can still be optimized if no or only incorrect information can be used to determine the position using the location system. This enables the database to be expanded at the edge of the area for which position references are available.
  • Another great advantage of this method is that it can be assumed that different people with different devices (ie Positioning devices) will perform the locating process. Since the errors of the INS of the various end devices are uncorrelated, these errors cancel each other out in several runs with different end devices.
  • the database can therefore be improved with this method, since an average error-free relationship between all of the Position determination used reference objects is produced.
  • the only error that cannot be corrected with this method is a shift of the positions of all reference objects of the positioning system that is not free of mean values.
  • this case has practically no relevance.
  • the method according to the invention enables an automated improvement of the database for the location (position database) without a new measurement using a reference system. A gradual expansion of the position database at the edge of the application area is possible. It is possible to map the paths in buildings. All of this leads as a benefit for the user of the location system to improved location accuracy and for the operator of the location system to lower operating costs, since the quality of the database can be improved by the location devices of the users without additional effort in operation.
  • the method according to the invention for determining the position relates to the essential components of the location system based on radio transmitters, INS for recording a movement path (coupling), algorithm for fusing absolute positions and path information, method for optimizing the database from the merged data. These components are described in more detail below.
  • the location system must be based on a database that is used to map the information determined on the terminal to the current position. This applies in particular to location systems based on radio networks, which are currently mostly WLAN networks. In principle, however, the systems can also be based on Bluetooth or any other type of radio network. In principle, even non-electromagnetic transmission paths (e.g. acoustic) are conceivable. In the area of WLAN location methods, the method can be applied in particular to systems which are based on databases with router positions or which use the "position fingerprinting" method.
  • the recording of a movement path can be carried out, for example, on the basis of micromechanical sensors (MEMS).
  • MEMS micromechanical sensors
  • At least one sensor for determining the amount of the change in position and at least one sensor for determining the direction of the change in position are required.
  • these can be acceleration sensors, compass and rotation rate sensor.
  • it is also possible to record path information on the basis of other sensor data for example the speed and steering angle of a vehicle can be used, this vehicle in particular being a car or a bicycle.
  • the combination of compass and wheel speed measurement is also conceivable for use on bicycles.
  • Both position and path information can be mathematically expressed as a set of tuples X represent i , which consist of at least two coordinates, but can also contain a third coordinate and a time stamp.
  • the number of tuples of the position and path information can be different. It is assumed that there are N position and M path tuples.
  • the index i is used for position tuples as above, and index j for path tuples.
  • G ⁇ ⁇ i . j f X i X j ⁇ after the variable ⁇ , which indicates the shift between position and path information.
  • f ( X i , X j , ⁇ ) only returns a non-zero value for X i and X j recorded at a similar point in time.
  • ⁇ x indicates the displacement between the coordinate systems of path and position information in the x direction.
  • ⁇ y is defined analogously for the y direction. If a minimum of g ( ⁇ ) is determined in this definition, the geometric distance between the position and path information can be minimized by the choice of the determined ⁇ .
  • the deviations can be weighted differently depending on the direction, so that, for example, a deviation in the y direction is weighted more strongly than a deviation in the z direction, since the position determination in the z direction may be less precise.
  • the time difference between the measuring points of the two measuring systems can also be treated here analogously to the values of the geometric directions.
  • the result of the fusion step is a deviation between the two measuring systems in all dimensions of the tuple for each measured point. If a system can be regarded as error-free to a good approximation, the specific error E i is the measurement error of the other system at the point i under consideration.
  • k is a factor with which the change in the database is weighted. This factor depends, for example, on the accuracy of the measuring systems and the desired optimization speed of the database. If there are no entries in the position database for a position, but a position could be determined based on previously determined positions and the measured path, this can be used to, as described in the prior art, the position of still unknown position references (often WLAN routers) to investigate.
  • the method according to the invention for determining the position contains the essential features of a first step 10, in which a first sequence of radio signals from essentially fixed transmitters Positions 12 and from other sensor data is determined by coupling a second sequence of positions 14, and the features according to the invention of a second step 20, in which the first sequence of positions 12 and the second sequence of positions 14 are compared with one another.
  • the first sequence of positions 12 and the second sequence of positions 14 are compared and a resulting sequence of positions is determined from the comparison.
  • the first sequence of positions 12 is determined from stored information relating to transmitters assigned to possible locations, for example from a position database.
  • the first sequence of positions 12 is determined from stored positions and / or signal strengths from transmitters, for example from a position database.
  • At least one position 32 from the first sequence of positions 12 is corrected in a third step 30 after the second step 20.
  • the position database can thus be improved.
  • information about assigned transmitters or position and / or signal strength of at least one transmitter is stored for at least one position 34 from the first sequence of positions 12. This means that the position database can be supplemented with a new entry and thus expanded.
  • the method according to the invention can also be carried out several times in succession. For example, after the second step 20 or after the third step 30, the first step 10 can be carried out again.
  • the first sequence of positions 12 and also the second sequence of positions 14 can be supplemented by adding new positions to a new one of positions, which are then fed to the comparison or data fusion in the second step 20.
  • the accuracy 2 of the individual is before the first step 10
  • Position determination for the positions of the first sequence 12 and also the accuracy 4 for the positions of the second sequence 14 are determined.
